During the festival, every corner of the city comes alive with bright colours and glowing Diyas.
Commenting on the festive rituals in the oldest living city, Varanasi, Shahzad Aslam, Head of Sales, Leisure Hotels Group added “Varanasi is also known for its kaleidoscope of Indian civilization and culture of India. Every year pilgrims, travellers and tourists from all across the globe flock the city during this period to get a glimpse of India’s diverse culture.
